How frequently does the Troop meet?

Our unit meets every week during the school year, and occasionally during the summer months.

Patrol Meetings

Patrol Meetings, Patrol Leaders Council, and Patrol events are sometimes held outside the Wednesday meeting, including weekends.

Weekend Campouts

Weekly meetings are typically spent preparing for monthly campouts coordinated by the unit, district, council, or as a special event. These campouts are typically on weekends, with a Friday evening departure and Sunday return before noon.

Summer and Adventure Campouts

July and August are reserved for Scouts to participate in summer camping and adventure camping at local and regional camps, as well as state and national camps. Additionally, Scouts participate in canoe trips, biking trips, Jamborees, Order of the Arrow Conclaves, and trips to Philmont Scout Ranch.

Training and Courts of Honor

Some campouts and meetings are focused on specialized youth and/or adult training, typically in preparation for camping and leadership activities. We also hold Courts of Honor and periodically attend special events; for example, Scout Sunday, which typically involves a parent meeting and refreshments.
